Pricing
Starting prices. No hidden development total.
You see the down payment, the twelve development payments, and the total base development price. Optional features are extra. Recurring Castillo services are never mixed into that financed development number.
Your initial payment starts development. The first monthly development payment is due only when you approve the finished product; the remaining 11 follow on the same calendar day each month. Short months use their last day, then return to the original day. For new offers, separately priced monthly add-ons also start on finished-product approval, with their exact total and separate card authorization shown first. Provider usage fees remain separate; existing signed agreements keep their terms.

Customer accounts, employee portals, scheduling, payments, SMS, advanced uploads, maps, AI, inventory, integrations, e-signatures, standard reporting beyond the included basic dashboard, advanced reporting, and extra languages are not automatically included. Registrar purchase and renewal charges for a domain are separate. Additional hostnames beyond the one included primary hostname require a separate approved quote.
How domain and dashboard pricing work
Owner-authorized Product Bible resolution dated 2026-09-05, including the later hostname and reporting reconciliation. These rules apply to new offers. Accepted offers and contracts are not retroactively changed.
Primary hostname
Base development includes SSL and connection of one existing primary hostname. An apex domain includes its conventional www counterpart or redirect where applicable. A selected subdomain also qualifies as the primary hostname. Additional hostnames require a separate approved quote; there is no published fixed price. Registrar purchase and renewal charges are separate and paid to the registrar. A Castillo review URL is available during the Staging review period and is not perpetual free hosting. The former $99.00 Custom Domain Setup add-on is not a required new charge.
Dashboard and reports
Base development includes a basic dashboard and admin. Standard Reporting is $99.00 and remains independently available: standard operational reports for agreed roles, with counts, lists, and a date-range filter. Advanced Reporting is $199.00 setup with no separate monthly add-on fee and includes that Standard Reporting foundation, so selecting both on a new offer does not add a second $99.00. It is not a data warehouse or custom BI build.
Optional add-ons
Eligible one-time development add-ons may be paid today or financed across the same twelve development payments. Recurring Castillo service fees are not financed. Expand an item for the full description. Price, any monthly Castillo charge, and important limits stay visible.

These examples show how the fee is calculated. They are not a sales forecast, and the fee is not treated as guaranteed Castillo income. The planned five-year duration and the exact definitions of Qualifying Payments remain under legal review. They are not final contract language and have not received legal approval.

Voluntary cancellation takes 30 days’ notice. Care is not mandatory forever.

Standard post-payoff handoff is included at no extra charge and can include applicable client-specific source, a business data export, deployment information, provider inventory, and setup documentation. Hands-on migration elsewhere can be billed separately.
